Knights of the Hound Table (2019)

About this game

A deck-building card game set in an all dog medieval world. Two sides have been fighting a war for ages, the red and the blue houses, but when The Great Distraction happens, nobody can remember what team they're on. Now it's up to you to draft dogs to your side and win the war! Players will take turns drafting hounds to their side. They'll then play three at a time: 1 to attack, 1 to defend and 1 to use their ability. Gain treats for damage dealt and use it to buy heroes to your deck. Keep attacking your enemies until you're the last one standing!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
